I probably didn't "have to" switch batteries at that point, but the cargo was a couple of new bigger batteries (now I have 3 batteries and 5 cradles that they all fit!) And there's something wrong with my #baseRunner controller settings, I think the battery current limit manifests as a sharp cut […]

#baserunner temperature staying under ~55°C on this ride eastbound from the post office on Multnomah, up through the village and over the hill on Capitol Hwy, through Hillsdale to Terwilliger and south to Chestnut. Top assisted speed seems to be ~35km/h = 22mph.

Hopefully that's enough surface area because I'll have to way to read the temp when it's all bolted to the frame. #baserunner

It's alive! Really needs a heatsink on the controller though, one little hill and it went to thermal rollback. Also something wrong with my parameters, I guess, that mashing the throttle with load will make it cut out. (How to make it gracefully limit?) #baserunner
There's darkness all around a TV screen. On it is a closeup on the face of a pitcher for the LA Dodgers - I believe it's Yamamoto. A strip of closed caption text across his blue LA ballcap reads "John: That is what pitching." At top right corner of screen is the Fox network logo and the World Series logo. Below them is text "TOR Leads 3-2" telling us that Toronto leads the series 3 ganes to 2. At bottom right where the game score, balls and strikes for the current at bat, and indication of runners on base should be is the silouhette of my cat sitting up in front of the TV blocking this info.
This #Caturday night, Mom says I'm not allowed to sit where I did last night.
